Many times, in order to understand where one is headed, he needs to understand what is behind him.

With overwhelming opposition to armed intervention in Syria, the global elitists’ plans seem to have been delayed a bit, but fear not, their end game is not simply Syria. Long-term plans to topple Iran, as well as continue to move further south into Africa, seem to be the goal.

And for that to happen, the West needs to establish a larger support base among the American People. The West needs a new boogeyman, as the al-Qaeda ghoul has fallen apart now that mainstream news outlets are finally admitting that we give them money, weapons, communications equipment, and provide airstrikes for their operations. Once the Syria debacle hit the headlines, regular Joe Citizen finally started to realize just how much support the US is giving to admitted members of al-Qaeda, especially as they morph into the powerful al-Nusra Front in Syria.

But Africa lies ready and ripe for the picking, not only in resources, but in enemies. With the recent, well-publicized anniversary of the ‘Black Hawk Down’ incident in Somalia, and the shooting at the Westgate shopping mall in Nairobi, Kenya, we continue to see the African continent in the news....

A former CIA gun runner revealed that the U.S. Ambassador to Libya, J. Christopher Stevens, was killed in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi in order to cover up the U.S. State Department’s direct arm shipments to al-Qaeda.

Hayden’s Note:

I’m glad that this information is finally starting to become mainstream knowledge. I’ve been talking about this very topic for a few years, especially as it relates to Libya and the arming of our “sworn enemies” in the sacking of Tripoli. I repeatedly wrote articles discussing the tens of thousands of surface-to-air missiles that went “missing”, and are now in Syria.

The Benghazi “attack” was a complete cover used to silence powerful critics of the arms deals.

The leaders of the Supreme Military Council of the Free Syrian Army told the senator they want the U.S. to provide arms, a no-fly zone, and strikes on Hezbollah.

Sen. John McCain Monday became the highest-ranking U.S. official to enter Syria since the bloody civil war there began more than two years ago, The Daily Beast has learned.

Hayden’s Note:

The “Syrian rebels”, as I’ve stated for a very long time, are mostly made up of guerrilla fighters, insurgents, and freelance mercenaries willing to fight for whomever pays. We saw this exact same operation in Libya, and again, the “rebels” received American support, including money, arms, logistics, communications, and air support. Many of those “rebels” were openly-admitted al-Qaeda members, some who had notoriously killed American soldiers only a year prior.

I understand that some of you are fiercely patriotic, but start questioning things like this. It is a direct violation of the National Defense Authorization Act to arm or support al-Qaeda members, as well as meeting the very definition of treason – “…to give aid or support to the enemy.”

According to a recent report by Indy Media, Mexican crude oil will be sold to China without using the US dollar as its trading currency. Sources inside the Mexican government refuse to disclose if they have been in secret negotiations with China over possible crude oil sales.

If you’re not familiar with the term petrodollar, or why a move such as this by China, Mexico, or Russia is of grave concern, allow me to give you a few points to consider and explain the situation –

In 1975, the members of OPEC agreed to sell oil only in US dollars. This was for a variety of reasons, but chief among them was to maintain a need for US currency and maintain its reign as the global reserve. Without this in America’s backpocket, I’m sure that the Dollar would have even less value, to put it mildly.

Greenspan, in his first speech after leaving as Chairman of the Fed, said that gold prices were up because of concern about terrorism, and not because of monetary concerns or because he created too many dollars during his tenure.

People often ask me why the West doesn’t attempt a Libya-style intervention in Syria. After all, things are going so well in Libya. Oil production is up. But oil production is merely a mirage, as is security in Libya, which was doomed from the day one PG (post-Gaddafi) because of the way it was “liberated”.

Hayden’s Note:

While this is a more “mainstream” piece regarding Libya, towards the end, it really gets into the nuts and bolts about what happened during the initial “liberation” and the current problems revolving around US Ambassador Steven’s death. Private intelligence firm Jellyfish Operations offers up straight-forward information regarding Abu Yahya al-Libi and CIA-backed “al-Qaeda” terrorist/puppet Ayman al-Zawahiri. (All-CIA-Duh!)

As you read it, look beyond what’s merely printed in black and white and add a bit of imagination to it – trust me, it is much further down the rabbit hole than even your wildest imaginations. Connect the dots and wake up. We use “terrorists” as proxy armies, as puppets, as a means to an end, and when we’re done with them, we demonize them in our mainstream media and send the drones in.

The killings of the US ambassador to Libya and three of his staff were likely to have been the result of a serious and continuing security breach, The Independent can reveal.

American officials believe the attack was planned, but Chris Stevens had been back in the country only a short while and the details of his visit to Benghazi, where he and his staff died, were meant to be confidential.

Hayden’s Note:

The US used and financed al-Qaeda (All-CIA-Duh!) as a proxy army in Libya, ending in Gaddafi’s assassination. We are now openly using them in Syria, against Assad. So, tell me, who is the target in this War on Terror?

Over the last few years, our intelligence community has been incrementally using, in every sense of the word, extremists and insurgents, in order to further their terror plan – and it has succeeded quite well, I might add. Everywhere I turn, I hear from Republicans and Conservatives, even some Democrats, that al-Qaeda and Muslims should be exterminated. I hear fear on a non-stop basis from my fellow Americans.

In an unbelievable act of high treason and overt criminality, the US State Department, headed by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, has finalized arrangements to move the US State Department-listed foreign terror organization, Mujahedin-e Khalq Organization (MEK), into the former US military base “Camp Liberty’ in Iraq.

Hayden’s Note:

Article III, Section 3 of the US Constitution defines treason as waging war against the interests of the United States or giving aid and comfort to her enemies. First and foremost, I’m not sure which is closer to the definition of our enemy: The US State Department as a whole? Or just their policies and support for violent, for-hire terrorist organizations acting out the directives of Western Intelligence…? Are we not culpable for terrorism by proxy?

And we’re giving them Camp Liberty? What a slap in the face.

Effectively turning the camp into a living monument of desecration to the memories of 6,000+US troops killed over the last 10 years of the fraudulent “War on Terror,” the US State Department is also appropriating US taxpayers’ money to make upgrades to the camp to accommodate the terrorist organization....

Two West Point reports confirm that LIFG was formally joined with Al Qaeda, and many of its top leaders constitute the core of Al Qaeda’s upper echelons. These reports also confirm that LIFG fighters were operational in both Afghanistan and Iraq, killing US and British troops, and that the vast majority of their fighters were recruited from the Libyan cities of Benghazi and Darnah. In 2011, it would be these two cities that served as the epicenter of NATO-backed resistance against Qaddafi.

More recently it was exposed by French independent reporter Thierry Meyssan of VoltaireNet.org that LIFG commander Abdul Hakim Belhaj has left the NATO bombed city of Tripoli and is now directing the “Free Syrian Army” from the border of Turkey (a NATO member since 1952)....

The US and its allies are considering giving military aid to the Syrian opposition battling the regime of President Bashar al Assad in an 11-month uprising that activists say has killed more than 6,000 people.

The Pentagon has drawn up contingency plans which include supplying the Free Syrian Army (FSA) with weapons and establishing a humanitarian corridor to deliver aid to civilians, The Times reported.

Several nations have already been aiding the rebels, with Saudi Arabia providing financial assistance and Qatar supplying them with 3000 satellite phones. Qatar was also giving the FSA night-vision equipment and anti-tank missiles.

The FSA’s logistical coordinator Sheikh Zuheir Abassi told The Times the rebels wanted the West to provide no-fly zones and a haven from which they could safely operate.

Hayden’s Note:

Gee, this is an exact repeat of Libya. And the Libyan “rebels” turned out to be bona fide members of al-Qaeda. ...

The Arab Spring uprisings were arguably the most significant events of the last 12 months. Protests are still raging across the region, even after regimes were toppled. Journalist and author F. William Engdahl gives his view on the Arab world in 2012. – RT

Hayden’s Note:

I’ve been writing about this since it started, and stated then, as I do now, that these “uprisings” are merely Western-sponsored intervention, riding on the coat tails of real grievances. It is a global de-stabilization operation. Egypt is a prime example – the protests have started again once the people realized they had been fleeced.

Moscow has accused the west of stirring up tensions in the Arab world by calling for the overthrow of the Syrian regime. Russia says calls from certain states for the Syrian opposition to avoid dialogue with the government, are only provoking further violence. Author and journalist Webster Tarpley, who’s in Damascus, says it’s very simple; Western powers are behind the violence in Syria, including death squads and snipers trying to instigate problems.

Hayden’s Note:

This reminds me of the assassination of Benazhir Bhutto, the former Prime Minister of Pakistan. She was shot in the face and Heads of State claimed it was protesters, terrorists, or an explosion. Most geopolitical sources now agree that it was an targeted intelligence operation involving snipers and quite likely, private contractors being the trigger man.

This also echoes what just happened in Libya… hired mercenaries and al-Qaeda members from the region descend upon the towns as a Western proxy army in order to cause regime change....

Mario Monti, who will lead the Italian government after Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi resigned, has an interesting resume. Let’s take a look at who will be in charge of Italy’s new economic direction and dealings with, among other things, the soon-to-be acquired Libyan oil. Prior to the NATO invasion, Italy relied upon Libya for 85% of their oil. I’m sure they’ll be getting a much better discount package nowadays, having taken part in the NATO operation to “liberate” the country and assassinate its leader.

It remains unclear exactly why or how the Gadhafi regime went from “a model” and an “important ally” to the next target for regime change in a period of just a few years. But after claims of “genocide” as the justification for NATO intervention were disputed by experts, several other theories have been floated.

According to more than a few observers, Gadhafi’s plan to quit selling Libyan oil in U.S. dollars — demanding payment instead in gold-backed “dinars” (a single African currency made from gold) — was the real cause. The regime, sitting on massive amounts of gold, estimated at close to 150 tons, was also pushing other African and Middle Eastern governments to follow suit.
